And as with all of life’s most difficult choices, there is no single right answer. The Kingdom is fundamentally about choices. What is right, what is wrong, what can you live with and how can you justify those choices to yourself.

When you know that no matter what you choose, you’re going to lie awake at night torturing yourself over whether you made the right choice.”
